Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> End-user DDL?
So, there I am. An Oracle DBA with a host of MS Access databases that end-users have created to do reporting via linked tables. Fine.
All of a sudden, one of these MS Access databases gets corrupted. Guess what? It was also used to enter and hold production data! Eek!
I would like to create an Oracle DB (8i) and allow the end user to create and manipulate Oracle tables that they can then link to their MS Access queries/forms/reports. It doesn't look that that can be done using MS Access' weak toolset.
We were guessing that we may be able to create a custom Perl CGI to have the end-user do their own DDL on a webpage, but this seems like we might be reinventing the wheel.
Has anyone given end-users (read: know nothing about Oracle) carte blanche access to do their own DDL? What tools did you use?
TIA,
